One of
the advantages of being a librarian with access to the worlds largest UFO,
Fortean and paranormal phenomena archive, AFU, is now and then discovering
documents giving new data and unique insights into some aspect of the UFO
contactee enigma. Presently I am examining the late George Adamski
co-worker H.C. Petersen´s archive, part of which was donated to AFU in 2013. Recently
I found a very intriguing article, Chemical Analysis, written by George Adamski
in 1961. An article implying a possible connection to or involvement in the
once secret CIA MK-Ultra mind control program. Experiments conducted during the
1950 and 60s.
Here is
a relevant quote from this article:
H C Petersen
”In the past several years the space people have tested our various chemicals that are supposed to be for health and the betterment of human beings. As a result 62 out of 80 space people, who took these drugs, had to be taken back to their home planet in order to get them back to normal, while 6 out of the 18 left were able to stand the test longer. But eventually they started doing things and spreading false information, where reason was no longer their guide. And recently they had to be taken back. Two of these 6 were almost insane at the time. While the 12 are still here, being closely watched by their superior… I know this to be true for I have met these space people who were taken away. I was given the privilege to watch them from the beginning and how these things affected them.
(George Adamski, Chemical Analysis, Aug. 24, 1961).

This
quote certainly raised my eyebrows. What kind of space people would come to our
planet and use their own people in dangerous and cruel medical experiments? A
scientifically and spiritually advanced civilisation would of course have detailed
knowledge of the biological and psychological effects of various chemicals and
would never engage in such unethical acts. If these statements by George
Adamski are to be taken seriously then he must have, during his last years,
been involved with a shady and possibly dangerous group of ”space people.” Or
could Adamski have been used in some black ops mindcontrol program like
MK-Ultra?
Today
there are hundreds of books and thousands of articles about Project MK-Ultra, in
many respects an illegal program officially implemented between 1953-1973. Details
of the project were not brought to public attention until 1975. A large number
of people became unwitting test subjects of mind manipulation through drugs,
electroshocks, hypnosis, sensory deprivation, isolation, verbal and sexual
abuse. CIA worked with some 80 U.S. institutions in these tests, using front
organizations. How come that George Adamski already in 1961 described a mind
manipulation program almost identical with MK-Ultra?
Readers
of my blog are aware of that I have advanced the theory that several
individuals in the 1950s and 60s were involved in a psychological and cultural
influence test. An experiment implemented by a group of benevolent aliens,
earth based or extraterrestrial, a group with access to “vimana”
technology. Some of the people contacted
tried their best to implement the projects and ideas received by the visitors.
Others couldn´t stand the psychological strain and social stigma of the
experiences or invented fake stories when the real contacts ended. Circumstantial
empirical evidence indicates that the following contactees were involved in
this test: George Adamski, Orfeo Angelucci, George Van Tassel, Daniel Fry,
Howard Menger a.o.
As many
of his co-workers noted, something happenend to George Adamski in the beginning
of the 1960s. His behavior and ideas changed and he started to refer to a ”new
set of boys”, a new group of space people that had contacted him. Quoting Carol
Honey, New Zealand journalist Tony Brunt writes in his Adamski biography: ”Later
in 1962 he wanted to get into fortune telling. ”He asked me to publish in my
newsletter that he would give an analysis of photographs for $5, a recent photo
and the person´s date of birth,”Honey wrote. ”I refused to do this. He claimed
that he was shown how to do this on his ”Trip To Saturn.” I could not go along
with his new idea and told him I couldn´t understand how the ”brothers” could
propose such a thing. He preplied he couldn´t understand it either but he
trusted them and they wouldn´t let him down.”

In the 1960s there was much discussion and
speculation among Adamski co-workers and friends what had happened. Former
co-worker Lou Zinsstag concluded: ”In 1964 Henk and I had come to similar
conclusions. George had got into the wrong hands. Either, we reasoned, his ”new set of boys” was an extremely clever
fake organization, a group of secret agents (not necessesarily governmental),
trained experts in mind control and hypnosis, or else George was dealing with a
new group of space people who were deliberately feeding him false information
in order to confuse an issue which had been established by the earlier
friendlier group.”
(Lou Zinsstag, Timothy Good, George Adamski – The Untold Story, p. 71)
How much
was CIA and other more secret intelligence organizations involved in and using
UFO contactees in the 1950s and 60s for medical and sociological test purposes? The fear of communism was one
reason they kept an eye on contactees. But could the influence have been more
profound? In 1978 ufologist Rick Reynolds was approached by a mysterious man
named Bosco Nedelcovic, who claimed to have worked for the CIA and the
Department of Defense. One of his projects involved destabilizing prominent
figures in the civil rights movement. Nedelcovic also revealed that he had been
involved in the Vilas-Boas abduction which was a part of the CIA´s mind control
program called MK-Ultra. With the help of a helicopter and a chemical
derivative in gas form the MK-Ultra operatives wanted to find out how the human
mind could be altered and manipulated by hallucinogenic substances. And Antonio
Vilas-Boas became the unfortunate human guinea pig.
That
there were many groups, not always benevolent, involved with the early
contactees was often mentioned by the contactees themselves in books and
lectures. Howard Menger was warned by his space people that he should be aware
of false contacts:
"Who are these people? I thought I could listen to any of you.
They´re not US Howard. there are OTHERS operating. I´ll speak of them simply as The Conspiracy... My friend, this earth is the battlefield of Armageddon, and the battle is for men´s minds and souls... You don´t know Howard, that there is a very powerful group on this planet, which possesses tremendous knowledge of technology, psychology, and most unfortunate of all, advanced brain therapy...They use people not only from this planet... but also other people of your own planet - people you don´t know about. People who live unobserved and undiscovered as yet. It is a kind of underground in your popular terminology."
(Howard Menger, From Outer Space to You, 1959, pp. 142-144).

Researching the history of the 1950s contactees is like opening Chinese boxes. You open one and find another box inside – with a still deeper mystery.
